The security of our southern boarder is a distraction. It's only one way illegal immigrants enter the country. In fact, it isn't even the way most illegals, or drugs enter the country.

Unemployment BEFORE trump was elected was 4.8%. Like it or not, that is considered to be optimal by economists. Any lower, and inflation becomes a concern.

Watch out. Within a month, I fully expect Trump and all the Trumpaloompas to be claiming that unemployment was at 42% under Obama----a CLAIM that Trump actually MADE on the campaign trail-----and that the Magnificent God King Trump has REDUCED it to 4.8% (or whatever) in the space of two months.

The kind of jingoistic economic nationalism that you want, and that Trump represents, has NEVER worked ANYWHERE. In the 1930's it led to a decade-long Great Depression. Followed by World War II.

Mr. Trump's economic policies may very well lead the world down a short path to World War III.

Albert Einstein: I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones.

Here is what qualifies as a DISEASE: WANTING to go through life as ignorant as what so many of your posts exhibit.

I don't know about "anywhere." Isolation from the rest of the world except when compelled to accept its input worked for China for thousands of years. The reason Russia is as big as it is, is because the House of Rurik inherited the Mongol policy of serve, pay tribute or die and then things really got crazy in the 17th century.

But on the same token, Russia's embrace of rogue statedom today is the reason for its decline and China's keen interest to do business with the rest of the world is the reason for its (somewhat stalled of late) ascendancy.

I think you have the wrong people. It was the Nazis that united government and the press so you couldn't tell them apart. Trump isn't even trying to do this. The simple fact is that elements of former Obama allies throughout the government are working in concert with the press to try to overthrow the government.

Rubbish. You did NOT have a free press in Nazi Germany. That was my point. Are you SERIOUSLY disputing that?!!?!??? Trump OBVIOUSLY does not like our free press. He has even called them 'the opposition', and it won't be long before he calls them 'the enemy'. Then you will likely see overzealous Trump supporters murdering journalists. And people like SD (and you?) would probably be cheering EVEN THAT.

Labeling msm sources "fake news" is catching on - what do you think comes after that?

Actually, if Trump resigns, I think you liberals will be crying. Mike Pence will get busy appointing those pro-life, pro-traditional family, Christian judges and other wonderful appointments. Can you see Pence's pick for Bader Ginsberg's seat?

I have already addressed this with you. The calculations have been made and Trump is more dangerous for the nation than Pence. Pence is not unstable and not the one that may have colluded with Russia. What ever Pence does can be undone and only 20% of Justices are vacant at this point. Roll the dice with the Supreme Court until 2020 no problem Scalia died unexpected so nothing says another Conservative justice wont die unexpected or no justice at all will die in the next 3 years, so….Trump is gonzo but then again its up to the R's not the D's. The D's will support the R's on the ousting but they can't oust Trump by themselves now or in 2018. If Trump goes it will be at the hands of the R's. I have a feeling that makes you uneasy, hmmm….

What was it that some conservatives said about Trump? I remember, "he doesn't mean what he says literally". Yeah he did, they just realized it now. Some other conservatives said, "he has plans to fix the economy, foreign policy and get rid of government inefficiency, " they now realize he doesn't know the first thing about any of this stuff. He called Flynn in the middle of the night about a question regarding the strength of the dollar for God Sake.

China turned isolationist in about 1430 AD, give or take a few years. After that, it was mostly downhill for the Chinese economy, they lost their position of technological leader of the world, and by the 17th and 18th centuries, you were seeing TERRIBLE FAMINES in China.
